LogON Screen Changer is a small software application designed specifically for helping you change the logon image of your Windows 7 background.

The advantages of being portable

Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry.

You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to change the logon picture on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.

Minimalistic looks

You are welcomed by a small panel that embeds only a few dedicated parameters that you can play with. Photos can be added in the working environment using the built-in browse button, so you cannot make use of the drag-and-drop support.

On the downside, it works with a single file format (JPG), so you cannot open other formats, such as PNG, BMP, GIF, and TGA.

How it works

Basically, it proves to be nothing more than a child’s play to work with this utility, as you only need to specify the desired image and click on the “Change” button. Additionally, you can make the application restore the background image to the original one.

Although the program offers support for automatic photo adjustments in order to make the image fit your screen, it would have been useful to see support for a preview mode, resizing and cropping options, and support for special effects in order to enhance the picture appearance.

Performance

During our testing we have noticed that LogON Screen Changer carries out a task quickly and provides good image quality. It leaves a minimal footprint on system resources, so the overall performance of the computer is not hampered.

Bottom line

All things considered, LogON Screen Changer proves to be a simplistic piece of software that comes bundled with limited features for helping you change your Windows 7 logon image.
